This publication celebrates a century of outstanding poster art by women designers, illustrators and fine artists. From small beginnings in 1910 to Transport for London’s contemporary commissioning programme, more than 170 female artists have designed posters for the Capital’s Tube, buses and trams. Many of the names featured in the exhibition are unfamiliar today and deserve to be better known. Championed by London Transport and admired by the travelling public, they are heroines of twentieth century design.
